strengths,
Metamorphmagus: Unlike most other wizards and witches, Tonks possessed the ability to change her physical appearance without the need for a potion or a spell to assist. With simply a thought, Tonks was capable of changing her facial features, nose shape and hair and eye colour. She used this ability both to entertain people and to stop people from recognising her.

Auror skills: Tonks was rather young for an Auror, which spoke for her considerable skill. She was the last person to become a fully fledged Auror before Harry Potter was accepted, which when combined with the fact that becoming an Auror required proficiency in the practical application of magic and exceptional marks at school, highlighted Tonks' magical skill. In addition, Tonks' father noted that she had been in several sticky situations in her time as an Auror, and had always found a way to overcome them unscathed.

Expert duellist: As an official Dark Wizard catcher Tonks' duelling talents were naturally considerable. She was capable of duelling Thorfinn Rowle to a stalemate, before forcing him to retreat, and survived her first two encounters with the most powerful lieutenant of Lord Voldemort, her aunt Bellatrix Lestrange. Indeed, during her second encounter with her aunt, Tonks was able to duel her to a stand still in a mid air battle between the two, and was capable of overcoming Bellatrix's husband Rodolphus Lestrange at the same time. Tonks was ultimately killed by Bellatrix during the Battle of Hogwarts, though it is unknown what the nature of this encounter was and her death may or may not have been the result of a duel between the two.

Patronus charm: Tonks was capable of casting the powerful Patronus, in its corporeal state, and as a member of the Order of the Phoenix she was one of a handful of people known to be able to use a Patronus as a means of communication, as taught to her by Albus Dumbledore. At some point between the Battle of the Department of Mysteries and Harry's sixth year, her patronus changed form - into a wolf, as a result of the stress she felt over her love for Remus.

Nonverbal magic: Tonks is also capable of performing magic non-verbally as seen in several situations including duels. For example, she was able to stun Lucius Malfoy and duel Bellatrix Lestrange and other Death Eaters without saying a single word.

Flying Skill: Tonks is also a great flyer as seen when she escorted Harry with the Order from the Dursley's house and when she fought on a broomstick in mid air during the Battle Over Little Whinging.

overall personality,

Tonks is enthusiastic, bubbly, and able to make friends with people she had just met. She us eager and often wants to help Molly Weasley in the preparation of dinner at Grimmauld Place. As a Metamorphmagus, Tonks can alter her appearance at will, not only as a phenomenal gift in the art of disguise but for the lighter purposes of experimenting with her appearance and entertainment. She is not good at household spells and is also notoriously clumsy, knocking over an umbrella stand in Grimmauld Place that set off the painting of Walburga Black.

Tonks is charismatic and it's difficult to dislike her, unless you're a death eater. She is always friendly. Due to her becoming an auror at such a young age and her ability to conjour a Patronus, in its corporeal state is an indication of her well developed magical ability and intelligence. Above all, Tonks is loyal and true.

overall history,

Tonks maintained a good relationship with her parents, although she utterly detested the name Nymphadora, which was bestowed upon her by her mother. She took after her father, preferring a little disorder and mess to fanatical cleanliness. She is affectionately called Dora by her father, which she didn't seem to mind even though it was technically her first name.
Tonks' extended family was populated by members of the House of Black, although she was not considered a member of the House since her mother had married a Muggle-born and had been struck off the family tree. Her aunts included Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange. Draco Malfoy and Sirius Black were among her many cousins. Bellatrix seemed particularly eager to kill her niece whenever they encountered one another (especially after Voldemort instructed her to "prune" her family tree,) . The pair had several duels, and Tonks noted that Bellatrix seemed as keen to kill her as she was to rid the Dark Lord of Harry.

Since her mother was disowned after marrying her father, Tonks' name was not on the Black's family tree. As such, the family house-elf, Kreacher, who was supposed to listen to anyone in the family, refused to take orders from Tonks. Instead, he kept muttering insults about her half-blood status.

Tonks began her first year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in 1984 and was sorted into Hufflepuff House at the Sorting ceremony. Her Head of House was Professor Pomona Sprout, the Herbology teacher, who did not make her one of Hufflepuff's prefects in her fifth year because she lacked the ability to behave properly. Despite her behaviour, Tonks managed to earn good enough marks in her exams to qualify for Auror training when she left school in 1991. This means that she presumably took Defence Against the Dark Arts, Transfiguration, Charms, Potions and another subject at sixth and seventh year, and earned Exceeds Expectations or Outstandings in all of them for her Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Tests. Being the daughter of the ostracised Andromeda Tonks, she was rejected by the supremacists of the House of Black.

Undergoing three years of Auror training under the tutelage of Alastor Moody, Tonks' natural metamorphic abilities allowed her to easily pass the Concealment and Disguise portion of the training without doing any work for it at all. However, her clumsiness gave her trouble with the Stealth and Tracking portion of the course which she almost failed. Tonks fully qualified as an Auror in 1994.

Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody was Tonks' mentor during her time training as an Auror, and later during their time together in the Order of the Phoenix. Despite Moody's surly attitude and behaviour, Tonks was always at ease with him, making funny comments at his opinions and lectures, such as the one he gave Harry on elementary wand-safety the night the Advance Guard escorted him to Grimmauld Place. For his part, Moody was openly fond of Tonks; she had been his favourite during their time together at the Ministry. When Tonks was injured during her duel with Bellatrix Lestrange in theBattle of Hogwarts, Mad-Eye crawled his way to her side in an effort to help her regain consciousness, despite having been injured himself by Antonin Dolohov.

Tonks and fellow Order member Molly Weasley had a rather close relationship. Though there was a significant difference in age between the two, the pair often confided in one another; several people suspected that Molly hoped her son Bill Weasley would fall in love with Tonks, rather than marry Fleur Delacour. Molly appeared to be the only person that Tonks confided her love of Remus Lupin to.

With the return of Lord Voldemort in 1995, Tonks remained working for the ministry. She joined the reconstituted Order of the Phoenix, and, alongside Kingsley Shacklebolt, worked as a covert operative inside the Ministry, feeding the Order with information. Tonks had to be careful around the Ministry, though, as indiscreet actions would have seen her lose her position as an Auror. She was a considerable asset to the Order, and also took shifts guarding Harry Potter's prophecy in the Department of Mysteries. When the ministry fell, she had no choice but to hide as Bellatrix wanted her dead.

At the Battle of Hogwarts, she fought alongside Lupin. It was then, near the clutches of death, that Tonks realised that she was in love with Lupin. Injured in the battle, she was pulled to safety by Mad-Eye and woke up several days later at Grimmauld Place. Soon after that, she admitted to Remus that she loves him.
